“I am amazed how we have church on the phone!”

One of the six rhythms of the Apprenticeship is a conference call every two weeks with your cohort. Early on we wondered if a virtual community (phone, online forum, etc) could really become community. What we have discovered is that it really works! As people are faithful to engage all six of the rhythms, genuine […]

Apprenticeship: Daily?

I appreciate the way so many of you have responded thoughtfully to my message about recommitting to the daily rhythms of the Apprenticeship. http://storiesfromtherevolution.blogspot.com/2011/02/message-from-john-to-apprenticeship.html Here are two of the comments… “Listened to John’s encouragement to be faithful to our committment in the apprenticeship. It really is important to meet daily. We are seeing results from […]

Three leaders talk about SASHET

To be effective, a house church must become a genuine community. Simply meeting together once a week isn’t enough. Hearts must be knit together. As John Eldredge says, we must become “intimate allies”. SASHET is a simple but extraordinarily powerful tool toward the goal of genuine community. We teach this to all of our house […]

House2House Conference

At this moment I’m in Dallas for the House2House National Conference. I had the privilege of facilitating the main session yesterday (Saturday) morning. Our goal was to illustrate what leadership looks like when we really take seriously the idea that Jesus is the leader. I shared with the conference this thought provoking quote from Kent […]

Apprenticeships (2)

Many of you who read this blog are familiar with CO2s. The CO2 (“church of two”) concept has now become a primary spiritual discipline for hundreds of people. It’s origins were from a time just over a year ago when the Lord brought together a number of elements (SASHET, Virkler, pairs, etc.) in to a […]

Apprenticeships (1)

This training is designed to deepen your personal relationship with God. In addition, it will increase your capacity as a spiritual […]

Sarah Young (3)

Here’s an example of the devotional reading from August 3 in Jesus Calling. As you read it, you will see that it’s something Sarah felt the Lord spoke personally to her. This is valuable to those of us who are learning to hear God’s voice because it gives us an example. It helps answer the […]

Sarah Young (2)

Sarah Young continues describing a turning point in her spiritual journey. The year is 1993 and, although she had been a Jesus follower for many years, she now begins listening for God’s voice. My journaling had changed from monologue to dialogue. Soon, messages began to flow more freely, and I bought a special notebook, to […]

Sarah Young (1)

For the first time in a long time, I’ve begun reading a daily devotional book. I’ll tell you about the author, Sarah Young, and you’ll understand why. Sarah writes that in 1993 her relationship with God changed dramatically… I had been writing in prayer journals for years, but that was one-way communication: I did all […]

SASHET at breakfast

This is from my friend, Ken, in California… Hey John, I just wanted to tell you that my five year old reminds us to do SASHET around the breakfast table every morning. It has been good for us as a family. Clearly, SASHET is not just for adults. In fact, children seem instinctively to want […]
